Antecedentes del estudio La razón de ser del presente estudio fue la puesta en explotación del Yacimiento Vaca Muerta. Dicho yacimiento, cuya existencia era conocida desde hace un siglo, reúne condiciones excepcionales de extensión y espesor pero, si bien se conocía su riqueza, recién en la presente década, a partir de la puesta a punto de tecnologías no convencionales (TNC), denominadas “fracking” o fracturación hidráulica, se puso en marcha su explotación con resultados exitosos. En los últimos 3 años, ello ha implicado la concurrencia, el interés, la gestión y concreción de contratos con empresas petrolíferas de primera línea a nivel mundial. A su vez, las primeras operaciones (Loma La Lata y Loma Campana) han ocasionado un incremento demográfico de orden geométrico, tanto en la cantidad de habitantes de las zonas más inmediatas (entorno de la localidad de Añelo), como en la cantidad de desplazamientos de personas y de cargas en las vías de comunicación que vinculan dicha zona, los centros de referencia (la ciudad de Neuquén, especialmente) y los puntos de origen de los insumos requeridos (la arena, en especial). La región está en el foco del interés nacional e internacional e incluye las áreas en las que se están realizando y se proyectan las explotaciones no convencionales de hidrocarburos que son clave para la recuperación del autoabastecimiento energético. La exploración y explotación de estos yacimientos implicará un gran crecimiento demográfico en la región, acentuando el proceso que ya se viene dando en los últimos años. Además de las consecuencias sobre la situación demográfica, se prevén grandes transformaciones económicas y sociales que impactarán en la región, que es necesario delimitar, estimar y proyectar adecuadamente. Se presenta así un gran desafío a las localidades involucradas, a las provincias implicadas y a la Nación: definir y abordar claras estrategias territoriales integrales, referidas a la diversificación económica productiva, al desarrollo de infraestructura social y comunitaria que acompañe el crecimiento poblacional y al desarrollo de servicios que permitan mejorar la calidad de vida de los habitantes, y generar condiciones propicias para el desarrollo de inversiones privadas, no sólo en lo energético. Primera Etapa de los Estudios Dada la magnitud de las transformaciones y la incertidumbre sobre el futuro del fenómeno, la Provincia de Neuquén solicitó asistencia técnica a la Subsecretaría de Planificación Territorial de la Inversión Pública de la Nación (SSPTIP, Ministerio de Planificación Federal, Inversión Pública y Servicios) que, con financiamiento del Banco de Desarrollo de América Latina (CAF), brindó apoyo técnico para la formulación de una Primera Etapa de Estudios Estratégicos para el Desarrollo Territorial de la Región Vaca Muerta, la que fue desarrollada durante el año 2014 y se abocó a identificar las transformaciones sociales, productivas y territoriales previsibles a partir de la dinámica de las nuevas formas y escalas de explotación hidrocarburífera. El primer estudio asumió como Área de Estudio (AE) al cuadrante noreste de la Provincia, delimitado por la RN 40 al oeste y la RN 22 al sur e incluyó los siguientes contenidos: La caracterización de la actividad hidrocarburífera, su importancia y sus probables impactos 1 Estudios Estratégicos para el Desarrollo Territorial de la Región Vaca Muerta.

  • Tetrápodos Jurásico-Cretácicos
    TETRÁPODOS JURÁSICO-CRETÁCICOS Asociación Paleontológica Argentina. Publicación Especial 11 ISSN 0328-347X Ameghiniana 50º aniversario: 125-136. Buenos Aires, 25-11-2007 Reptiles marinos jurásicos y cretácicos de la Patagonia argentina: su aporte al conocimiento de la herpetofauna mesozoica Zulma GASPARINI*, Marta FERNÁNDEZ, Marcelo de la FUENTE y Leonardo SALGADO Abstract. The history of the knowledge of the different groups of Mesozoic marine reptiles of Patagonia can be divided into two major periods: the first one from the end of the XIX century up to 1940, during which the findings were scarce and few taxa are currently valid. The second, from the 1940’s to date. The biogeographic patterns of the marine reptiles during most of the Mesozoic could be analysed on the basis of systematic studies of the Patagonian records. One of the most outstanding paleogeographic events of the Jurassic was the dismembering of Pangea, which gave place to the Caribbean Corridor connecting, probably intermittently, the Western Tethys with the Eastern Pacific. The close affinities between the Jurassic marine reptiles of Argentina and Chile with those of Europe suggest that such corridor would have been one of the routes used by the marine reptiles for their dispersion. Thus, the middle Jurassic forms of Patagonia and Chile belong to genera recorded also in Europe (Metriorhynchus, Stenopterygius, cf. Muraenosarus and cf. Cryptoclidus), or to taxa with close phylogenetic relationships (Maresaurus, Mollesaurus). This is also seen in most of the genera of the Late Jurassic (Ophthalmosaurus, Aegirosaurus, Metriorhynchus, Geosaurus, Dakosaurus, Liopleurodon, Pliosaurus). Likewise, the finding of plesiosaurs and mosasaurs of the end of the Cretaceous in Patagonia arose a new context for the discussion of the biogeo- graphic, distribution of these predators in Southern Gondwana.

The country's shale gas reserves alone would account for 11.4% of the world’s remaining 1.5°C carbon budget if exploited to its maximum. Nearly all of these reserves are located in the Neuquén Basin in Northern Patagonia. The Vaca Muerta Shale Basin is located in the Neuquén Basin. It has been identified as the largest shale play outside North America. The megaproject entails extraction from the area’s enormous shale oil and gas reserves, as well as building associated infrastructure such as pipelines and LNG terminals. The deposit extends over 30,000 square kilometres and represents 43% of Argentina's total oil production and 60% of its gas production. Initially, this basin was supposed to contribute towards energy self-sufficiency, but recently, the export potential of the region has been realised and more attention is being paid towards exports.

This research defines the petroleum systems within the Neuquén basin that are charged from the Tithonian Vaca Muerta Formation; a unit deposited in a low angle ramp setting that is characterized in seismic and geochemical terms to contain three distinct organic facies. The oil types that correlate to the different organic facies are used to define effective migration pathways. The results indicate that the distal condensed sections are volumetrically significant but physical constraints related to hydrocarbon expulsion and migration contribute to decreased system efficiency. In contrast, the hydrocarbon potential of the shelfal condensed sections have less volumetric significance but exhibit higher efficiency due to the shorter distance required for fracture propagation (i.e., related to the expulsion event) and the effective juxtaposition of migration conduits and/or potential reservoirs. For example, expulsion of hydrocarbons into the underlying Kimmeridgian incised valleys along the Añelo Trough provide a regional migration pathway, whereas expulsion from the top of the unit provides a direct charge into sequences interpreted to represent detached lowstand fans.

FERNÁNDEZ 1, 2 AND LISANDRO CAMPOS 2 1CONICET. 2División Paleontología Vertebrados, Museo de La Plata, Universidad Nacional de La Plata, Paseo del Bosque s/n, B1900FWA La Plata, Argentina. [email protected] ; [email protected] Abstract . Thunnosaurian ichthyosaurs represent the paradigm of reptilian body designed for a pelagic life style. Most derived thunnosaurian, the ophthalmosaurids, have been traditionally considered as members of a declining lineage. New findings and the re-examination of histori - cal collections radically changed our conceptions about them. Opthalmosaurids were ecologically more diverse than previously thought. The past few decades have seen an increase of nominal species spurred by new findings and analyses. A still unresolved problem is that many species are only known by their holotypes. Nevertheless, morphological disparity is a compelling argument for considering them as valid. All recent cladistic analyses of ichthyosaurs recover ophthalmosaurids as a clade. Neither the addition of new information nor the addition of new enti ties resulted in its collapse. On this basis, the assignment of Linnaean rank to this clade (Ophtalmosauridae) is reasonable as it satisfied the primary recommended criteria for taxa naming: monophyly and stability. As the lists of species and genus names are used as input in major data bases for interpreting major turnover and/or extinction patterns, efforts must be focused on clarifying as much as possible the alpha tax onomy. Two major pending issues are the delimitation of Ophthalmosaurus -Baptanodon, and Platypterygius .

  • Assessment of Continuous Oil and Gas Resources in the Neuquén Basin Province, Argentina, 2016
    National and Global Petroleum Assessment Assessment of Continuous Oil and Gas Resources in the Neuquén Basin Province, Argentina, 2016 Using a geology-based assessment methodology, the U.S. Geological Survey assessed undiscovered, technically recoverable mean continuous resources of 14.4 billion barrels of oil and 38 trillion cubic feet of gas in the Neuquén Basin Province, Argentina. Introduction –72° –71° –70° –69° –68° –67° –66° The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) assessed San Fernando the potential for undiscovered, technically recoverable continuous (unconventional) oil and gas resources –35° within the Neuquén Basin Province, Argentina (figs. 1–3). As defined by the USGS, the province Talca encompasses the basin (or “embayment”), the plat- form in the eastern part of the province, and the fold –36° belt in the western part of the province. This study ARGENTINA estimated potential volumes of undiscovered continu- CHILE ous oil and gas in three petroleum source rocks that occur in the basin and in the fold belt: the Jurassic ( Los Molles Formation, the Jurassic–Early Cretaceous –37° Vaca Muerta Formation, and the Early Cretaceous Agrio Formation.

  • Extinction of Fish-Shaped Marine Reptiles Associated with Reduced
    ARTICLE Received 12 Aug 2015 | Accepted 22 Jan 2016 | Published 8 Mar 2016 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms10825 OPEN Extinction of fish-shaped marine reptiles associated with reduced evolutionary rates and global environmental volatility Valentin Fischer1,2, Nathalie Bardet3, Roger B.J. Benson1, Maxim S. Arkhangelsky4,5 & Matt Friedman1 Despite their profound adaptations to the aquatic realm and their apparent success throughout the Triassic and the Jurassic, ichthyosaurs became extinct roughly 30 million years before the end-Cretaceous mass extinction. Current hypotheses for this early demise involve relatively minor biotic events, but are at odds with recent understanding of the ichthyosaur fossil record. Here, we show that ichthyosaurs maintained high but diminishing richness and disparity throughout the Early Cretaceous. The last ichthyosaurs are characterized by reduced rates of origination and phenotypic evolution and their elevated extinction rates correlate with increased environmental volatility. In addition, we find that ichthyosaurs suffered from a profound Early Cenomanian extinction that reduced their ecological diversity, likely contributing to their final extinction at the end of the Cenomanian. Our results support a growing body of evidence revealing that global environmental change resulted in a major, temporally staggered turnover event that profoundly reorganized marine ecosystems during the Cenomanian. 1 Department of Earth Sciences, University of Oxford, South Parks Road, OX1 3AN Oxford, UK. 2 Department of Geology, University of Lie`ge, 14 Alle´e du 6 Aouˆt, 4000 Lie`ge, Belgium. 3 De´partement Histoire de la Terre, Muse´um National d’Histoire Naturelle, Sorbonne Universite´s, CR2P CNRS-MNHN-UPMC Paris 6, CP 38, 8 rue Buffon, 75005 Paris, France.
